Abstract
A document transport system for a copier has associated with it a platen having anti-static properties. A platen glass surface is coated with an optically transmissive grounded coating which serves to dissipate electrostatic fields which occur as a consequence of the movement of the document across the platen surface. In one embodiment wherein the transport system includes rollers which frictionally engage and move the document across the platen, the conductive coating is omitted in areas generally underlying the rollers.
